DELAY FX

Pressing DELAY FX in the main MULTIFX page will give you access to the various delay/echo

effects. The delay line in the multi-effects is dual channel allowing you to create ping pong and

many other stereo delay effects. It can also operate in a mono mode and this has the advantage of

doubling the available delay time.

MONO LEFT

The first of these is a simple mono delay line:

This takes its input from the left output channel of the modulation section. The parameters are:

DELAY TIME Here, you may set a delay time of up to 670mS

FEEDBACK This sets the amount of repeats the echo effect will have by setting how

much of the delayed output is fed back into the delay line. This will

increase the number of repeats in the effect.

HF DAMPING This sets the high frequency damping. The HF DAMP parameter filters

out some of the high frequency components in the sound in the feedback

loop. This is to simulate the effect that in real life, each repeat of the

echo gets slightly duller as the surfaces off which the sound is bouncing

absorb some of the high frequencies. The value shown is the frequency

that will be attenuated in the feedback loop.

FDBACK MONITOR This selects where you will listen to the output of the delay and allows

you to set the direction of the modulation section and the echo section.

You may select POST which will give the effect of echo followed by the

mod effects or you may select PRE which will give the effect of the mod

effects followed by echo.

NOTE: When PRE is selected, you must set a value in the FEEDBACK parameter to hear any

delay effect
